Rhoda Joseph, general manager at the Grand Arcade, said: Shop-fitting is underway for a bright cutting-edge concept store for the CK Underwear store in St Andrew’s Mall in Grand Arcade.

“The opening date has just been announced as Thursday, November 2, so they will have a good run into the peak trade of Christmas and all those lucky shoppers who can look forward to CK stocking fillers this year.
